Definitions
- contact tube bundle reactors consists of a, usually cylindrical, container in which a bundle, i.e. a plurality of contact tubes is usually arranged in a vertical arrangement.
- These contact tubes which may contain supported catalysts, are sealed with their ends in tube sheets and each open into a hood connected to the container at the upper or lower end.
- the reaction mixture flowing through the catalyst tubes is supplied or discharged via these hoods.
- a heat exchange medium circuit is passed through the space surrounding the contact tubes in order to balance the heat balance, in particular in the case of reactions with a strong exotherm.
- the heat exchange medium circuit it is known to achieve a largely homogeneous temperature distribution of the heat exchange medium in each horizontal section of the reactor in order to involve all contact tubes as evenly as possible in the reaction process (e.g. DE-B-16 01 162).
- the smoothing of the temperature distribution is accomplished by supplying or dissipating heat via outer ring lines with a plurality of jacket openings, each of which is attached to the reactor ends, as described, for example, in DE-B-34 09 159.
- a further improvement in the heat transfer is achieved by installing deflection disks which alternately leave a passage cross section in the middle of the reactor and at the edge of the reactor.
- deflection disks which alternately leave a passage cross section in the middle of the reactor and at the edge of the reactor.
- Such an arrangement is particularly suitable for ring-shaped tube bundles with a free central space and is known, for example, from GB-B-31 01 75.
- the deflection disks lead to a cross-flow of the contact tubes, with the result that the flow velocities and the heat transfer increase.
- the pressure loss of the heat exchange medium is comparatively very large.
- the pump system is expediently arranged between the upper and the lower ring line, the heat exchange medium being fed into the lower region of the reactor, for example via a ring line.
- the required delivery head of 4 to 5 m would require a technically unfavorable and fault-prone pump system, among other things due to complex pump shaft seals, longer pump shafts and greater heat input the pump shaft in the under engine mounting. Furthermore, the above-mentioned delivery head would require a raised salt melt expansion vessel, which is undesirable for safety reasons. The complete pump pressure would be applied to the shaft seal.
- the direct current flow has advantages over the countercurrent procedure, such as higher throughputs, lower catalyst hotspot temperatures, desired increase in the heat exchange temperature in the direction of the final reaction in the contact tubes, good temperature uniformity of the heat exchange medium over the reactor cross-section, i. H. good horizontal temperature stratification, clear operating conditions over the height of the contact tube space due to the lack of feedback by the heat exchange medium.
- a direct current flow of reaction mixture and heat exchange medium encounters the above-mentioned difficulties with regard to the pump system, provided the heat exchange medium is fed to the upper reactor area, for example directly via an upper ring line, and out of the lower reactor area. for example, is discharged directly via a ring line.
- the heat exchange medium is fed to the outer lower ring line, which is connected to the inner upper ring line via an area between the upper and lower ring line, from here in a known manner via jacket openings into the space surrounding the contact tubes, a meandering flow being formed via deflection disks becomes.
- the heat exchange medium leaves the space surrounding the contact tubes in the lower reactor part via jacket openings and enters the lower inner ring line. This is in turn connected via the area between the upper and lower ring line and with the upper outer ring line.
- the solution is based on a pump with a pump guide tube for conveying a heat exchange medium for a reactor with a bundle of contact tubes with a vertically arranged longitudinal axis, with supply of the heat exchange medium in the upper region of the reactor and removal of the heat exchange medium from the lower region of the reactor, preferably over each a ring line.
- the invention is characterized in that the pump has a housing which surrounds the pump guide tube, with an opening in the lower part of the housing through which the heat exchange medium drawn off from the lower region of the reactor by means of the pump flows into the housing, in the region between the Inner wall of the housing and the outer wall of the pump guide tube, possibly flowing upwards via a heat exchanger, flows into the interior of the pump guide tube via an opening in the upper region of the pump guide tube, flows through it from top to bottom and via an opening in the lower region of the pump guide tube flows into the reactor, in the upper region of the space between the contact tubes.
- the invention is not restricted with regard to the configuration of the supply or discharge of the heat exchange medium from the reactor. These can preferably take place via a ring line in each case.
- other flow guides are also possible, for example via spaces free of contact tubes opposite one another in the reactor space, as described in connection with reactor modules with a rectangular cross section in DE-A 198 57 842.
- the heat exchange medium flows through the opening in the lower area of the pump guide tube into a further space between the inner wall of the housing and the outer wall of the pump guide tube, flows through this space from bottom to top and finally flows through an opening in the upper area thereof Reactor, in the upper area of the space between the contact tubes.
- the pump is arranged higher, in such a way that it conveys the heat exchange medium directly, preferably via an upper ring line, into a reactor with a bundle of contact tubes, into the space between the contact tubes.
- the ventilation line (s) can be designed in such a way that they open into the pump below or above the liquid level.
- a pump is thus provided with a housing, which causes a deflection of the heat exchange medium flow conveyed by the pump.
- the pump according to the invention is preferably a propeller pump, in particular with a propeller with three or more blades.
- Axial feed pumps are used to convey liquid heat exchange media, often salt melts, and to supply or remove the heat of reaction from the tube-tube reactor.
- the propeller pump conveys the desired liquid, in the present case a heat exchange medium, for example a molten salt or a heat transfer oil, by means of the propeller which rotates in the pump guide tube.
- the propeller preferably has a gap distance from the pump guide tube in the range from 2 to 10 mm. In this case, the liquid in the pump guide tube has to be pumped from top to bottom, because otherwise sealing problems in particular occur.
- the pump guide tube is usually a hollow cylinder enclosing the propeller.
- a housing is provided around the pump guide tube, which encloses the pump guide tube and which, in connection with openings provided at suitable points in the pump guide tube, is designed such that it causes a deflection of the heat exchange medium flow in the pump.
- the housing has an opening in its lower region, into which the heat exchange medium withdrawn from the reactor flows, is directed upwards in a region between the pump guide tube and the inner wall of the housing, via an opening in the upper region of the pump guide tube into the interior of the Pump guide pipe flows in, flows through it, as usual, from top to bottom, leaves it through an opening in its lower region and is finally fed back to the reactor in its upper region.
- the openings in the pump guide tube and in the housing do not extend over the entire cross-sectional area of the pump guide tube or the housing, but only over about 20 to 50%, preferably over about 30% thereof.
- the reduced area, ie the opening can be stabilized by suitable struts. It is also possible to realize the openings in the pump guide tube or in the housing in such a way that the pump guide tube or the housing is formed by a perforated plate in the corresponding areas or has slits.
- the housing can be of simple design with a rectangular cross section, but it is also possible, particularly for higher pressure loads, to design the housing with a circular cross section.
- Baffles for the heat exchange medium are preferably arranged in one or more deflection regions of the housing.
- a guide device equipped with blades is arranged below the propeller in order to remove the swirl from the flow.
- the after-guiding apparatus is preferably designed such that its cross-section through which it flows corresponds to the cross-section through which it flows in the region of the propeller.
- a pin is provided at the lower end of the pump shaft and rotates in a bearing.
- the propeller can be operated at a higher peripheral speed, the gap between the propeller and the inner wall of the pump guide tube can be reduced, the pump runs more precisely and is maintenance-free because the upper bearings are less stressed.
- the pump can thus handle a larger volume flow and a greater delivery head. If the pump conveys a salt melt as a heat exchange medium, the heat exchange medium itself has a lubricating effect on the bearing.
- the bearing can also be reinforced with tungsten carbide steel.
- the pump according to the invention is particularly suitable for conveying the heat exchange medium flow for contact tube bundle reactors for carrying out exothermic or endothermic reactions, in particular oxidation reactions.
- FIG. 1 shows a preferred pump variant for deflecting the heat exchange medium flow in the pump with a cross-sectional view in FIG.
- FIG. 2 shows a further preferred embodiment variant for deflecting the heat exchange medium flow in the pump, with a cross-sectional illustration in FIG. 2a
- Figure 3 shows another embodiment with a pin at the lower end of the
- Figure 4 shows another preferred alternative with arrangement of the pump above the reactor and direct promotion of the heat exchange medium flow in the upper ring line of the reactor.
- FIG. 1 shows a pump 1 with deflection of the heat exchange medium 6 in the pump with guide tube 13 with inflow 16 in the upper area or outflow 17 in the lower area thereof, with housing 14 around guide tube 13 and a heat exchanger 18 arranged in housing 14
- the heat exchanger is only shown as an example, it is also possible to design the pump without a heat exchanger.
- the cross-section D-D in FIG. 1 a illustrates the housing 14, which is rectangular in cross-section, below the propeller 20, a guide device 21 with blades 22 is arranged.
- Baffles 19 are preferably arranged in the housing 14 in one or more deflection regions for the heat exchange medium 6.
- FIG. 2 shows a further embodiment variant of a pump 1 for deflecting the heat exchange medium 6 with cross section EE in FIG. 2a, the housing 14 deviating from the illustration in FIG. 1, as illustrated in the cross-sectional illustration in FIG. 2a, circularly in cross section the pump guide tube 13 is arranged around.
- FIG 3 shows a preferred pump variant with a guide pin 23 at the lower end of the pump shaft, which rotates in a bearing 24.
- Fig. 4 illustrates a particularly advantageous arrangement of a pump 1 with propeller 20 and with after guide 21 with blades 22, which promotes the heat exchange medium 6 directly into the upper ring line 25 of a reactor with a bundle of contact tubes 2.
- Reference numeral 26 denotes the lower ring line via which the heat exchange medium is drawn off by the pump 1.
- a thermal expansion compensator 28 can be installed in the feed line from the lower ring line 26 to the pump 1, and a vent line 27 leads from the upper region of the reactor into the pump, above the liquid level in the same.
